From Indiana to New York, step by step

Order the Indiana certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($15) is ordered from Indiana separately; it is not part of our New York order. New York counts one year from the day Indiana issues it, so the order goes in shortly before filing.
We prepare and file Form DOS-1361-f-a
It lists us as your New York registered agent, next to your Indiana name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Once Indiana's certificate is in hand, New York's filing goes in. After approval, your Indiana LLC is registered with New York.
